Default Wheel Fitment

Would there be any fitment issues with the 19" WORK LS-406 on my 99 gs3. I also will have the L-tuned/Eibach suspension setup. Here's the wheel:

yeah that would help. can't really say offset b/c i don't know how to figure that one out but i would run 19x8 front and back with a 245/35 tire.

that is a little skinny for GS. If you go 19' and none stagered, you need 255/35/19.
and with the correct offset, it will fit with no problem.

Hey Shadow, I think we were going back and forth on email this weekend, I would certainly say that unless you are 100% against staggered (for rotation purposes) then go with a wider rear tire/ wheel. The handling / aesthetic benefits are great, as well as re-sale potential (try to get rid of some mulitpiece wheels with the same widths front and rear and things will be tougher than with staggered)
